Why does everone think Kyle Busch is the best?

Question

everyone is so excited for Kyle Busch (and he does rock!) but why do people think he's so great, just because he's first in points? Jeff Burton was 1st in points, and people didn't get all "happy" for him. Tell me which driver you think is better than "The Wild Dude" You can say nobody if you wanna show your excitableness or prediction of the future, but I want to see the opinions of who "is" better than Kyle Busch.

Answer 1

Same reason fans think their favorite driver is the best.

Tony Stewart is better,Carl Edwards,Jeff Gordon,Jeff Burton,are better.

Busch is good and can drive but like all good drivers someone sees what he is doing and they start racing with him.

Answer 2

Kyle can drive sideways in complete control.  He has a winning spirit, and if you've ever watched a horse race, you've seen how far that desire to win can take you.

Answer 3

He is just real young to have won as much as he has. There are plenty of drivers as good or even better than Kyle. Carl has 3 wins also.

Answer 4

The record books show Kyle has done something no other driver has ever done in Nascar. 2 truck series wins, 3 Nationwide series wins, and 3 Cup series wins and the points leader. Nobody has ever racked up more than 1 win in all 3 series this early in the year. Outstanding effort.

Answer 5

well fist off because kyles a talented driver and he man handles the car if it were who is better racer by how clean they race and thier talent its johnson

Answer 6

I think for one he is really good but he brings a new excitement to the sport and lots of people are jumping on it.(not Winter Glory or #18's #1, they have been die hard from the beginning of Kyle's career including you) He is the best right now(not EVER) but there is a long long way to go. You can fall just as fast as you rose. Later.

Answer 7

I've always been a Dale Jr. fan... :-)

Answer 8

Because it is all part of the transition to weed out the veteran drivers and bring in the young guns that started a few years back. You see Dale Earnhardt Sr had the largest fan base. NASCAR  didn't like the total control of the fan base. Now his son Dale Jr has total control of the fan base. NASCAR still can't stand it.

What they want is to have someone like Jimmy Johnson and Kyle Busch come in and show favoritism and make them look like they are "the best drivers ever". They want anyone to look better than an Earnhardt. That's the reason they always compare drivers to "The Earnhardts".  

It started a few years back. NASCAR has been making unfair calls against Dale Jr penalizing him for things not even in the rule books but they let the same things slide with other drivers.

See NASCAR wants to brainwash those that don't know any better. That's why you have these few fans that think he is the best. They will never admit that NASCAR is showing favoritism to Toyota's teams this year.  Heck, Michael Waltrip is now allowed to steal parts and NASCAR  says "they will not get involved". Had Jr's team been involved in it then immediate suspensions.

There are a lot that is better than Kyle Busch. Kyle is just under NASCAR's wing as of now. It's all part of the "SHOW".

Answer 9

Right now he is because he is on top in points for the race to the championship.  He is also a consistent driver who finishes in top 5 & he will be one of the drivers to beat for the championship whether his haters want to accept it or not

Answer 10

I don't think he is the best, I may think he is great. The kid is doing well this year, but if he starts to get a big head on him or loose focus, it can all start going down hill. Now if he can keep it up, time will tell. Come closer to the chase, everybody will start to get aggressive. If Kyle is already locked in, will he drive aggressive, or will he actually drive smart and just let the other guys fight to get in? That will tell what his season will be like. I think it will be interesting. If Kyle wins the Championship, he will be "The Best". Now if somebody else wins the Championship, They'll be the best. Kyle has a chance to do it. I just hope he doesn't loose focus.

Answer 11

at least this is not a JR thank goodness... KB is the baddazzz stepchild of NASCAR he just is... and # 88 stay out of the way.. JR is a primadonna.... just a wannabe... the only Kyle that is like JR is Kyle Petty...what a funny thing..JR nation..

Answer 12

hes junk!!

Answer 13

Dale Jr. is way better than Kyle Busch, on the track and off. Dale takes his losses gracefully, he doesn't place the blame on anyone, nor does he threaten to wreck anyone he has to. Dale Jr. is the best by far :D

Answer 14

3 wins and leading in points will do it for now.  He is currently the strongest driver this year.  The kid has a TON of talent, he just has a crappy attitude.  If he kept his on track aggressiveness and just mellowed out some in front of the camera and show the guy he says he is, I think that he popularity would really soar (not that it already hasnt to some degree), h**l I'd probably start liking him again.  As long as he keeps pointing fingers at every one but himself, he'll be really limited to what he's capable of off the track.  

Folks compare Kyle to Dale Sr, I really think that's a bad comparison, I feel that he's more like a younger Tony Stewart.

Answer 15

I'd just like to say, I've always thought he was the best..

*reality*

who "is" better??

1-Jeff Gordon

2-Jimmie Johnson

3-Tony Stewart

4-Kurt Busch

5-Matt Kenseth

6-Bobby Labonte

(they all have championships to prove it)

Kyle might be the best thus far this season, but I try to keep in mind he just turned 23 years old, until he gets a championship, he's not in the same league as the 6 mentioned above, give him time, there's not a doubt in my mind, Kyle will have multiple championships before his career is over.

He's definately the one to beat this year, though..

Answer 16

Because he is in first place in the Cup series means he is the best so far this year. He has 2 teammates who are at least as good but are not in first so this year he is the best SO FAR.
